Listen "Omri Katz: Hocus Pocus, Eerie, Indiana, and Hollywood in the '90s"
Episode Synopsis
Join us on "Est in the '90s" as we go back to the golden era of film and television with special guest Omri Katz, the star of Hocus Pocus and Eerie, Indiana. In this episode, Omri shares a ton of incredible behind-the-scenes stories, including how he landed the iconic role of Max Dennison and the surprising competition he faced for the part.
We dive into his experiences working with legendary actors like Bette Midler, Sarah Jessica Parker, and Kathy Najimy, and what it was like to be a child actor surrounded by so many adults on set. Omri also talks about his time on Dallas, his love for the '90s grunge and metal scene, and his current ventures, including his annual Hocus Pocus event in Salem.
From his memories of the late Gary Marshall to his favorite episodes of Eerie, Indiana, this conversation is a trip down memory lane you won't want to miss. Plus, we'll get a pitch for Hocus Pocus 3 and hear what it was really like to be a "rebellious" '90s kid in Hollywood.
This episode contains some mature language and themes.
